Final Run of Fiat 500 by Gucci Announced!

The limited production Fiat 500 by Gucci will make its final appearance this year. For 2013, Fiat will bring back both the 500 by Gucci sedan and 500c Cabrio along with adding a new option package called the Interno Notte. Readers of Fiat500USA.com will recognise this as the Fiat 500 by Gucci II concept car unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year. The 500 by Gucci Interno Notte trim package uses dark exterior and interior accents to give this Gucci model an athletic yet sophisticated look.

Conceived through a collaboration between Gianni Agnelli's grandson and fashion connoisseur Lapo Elkann, Gucci Creative Director Frida Giannini and Fiat Centro Stile, the Fiat 500 by Gucci was introduced to the world in February 2011 at the Geneva International Auto Show and quickly gathered over 3,000 pre-orders worldwide by the end of summer. The US model debuted later that year in September during the Fashion's Night Out event in New York City and also posted brisk sales. By late Spring 2012, the US Fiat 500 by Gucci was sold out.
